LAHORE: An accountability court will resume hearing the Ramzan Sugar Mills case on Monday (today), ARY News reported.
The jail authorities will present Opposition Leader in Punjab Assembly Hamza Shahbaz Sharif before the court, while the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) will present witnesses in the reference.
Earlier, the court took notice of Hamza Shahbaz’s absence in the hearing and had ordered the jail officials to submit a written response to clarify the reasons for not producing him.
The NAB had filed a reference accusing former Punjab chief minister Shehbaz Sharif, his son Hamza Shahbaz and others for causing losses to the national exchequer and misusing authority by sanctioning construction of a bridge to facilitate the sugar mills.
NAB officials say, Shehbaz Sharif, being the chief minister of Punjab, misused his authority by issuing directives for the construction of a 10-kilometre-long drain in Chiniot primarily to benefit the sugar mill owned by his sons. Shehbaz and Hamza have been accused of fraudulently causing a Rs 213 million loss to the national exchequer.
